the clue is in the title of the link you posted


NHS patient, visitor and staff car parking principles

I work at an nhs hospital. I don't work for the nhs - but i am part of the hospitals staff

but that link specifically says "their staff" as in the NHS's staff if you aren't NHS staff then that guidance doesn't apply to you

I don't think a private organisation should be told how to manage their finances, If they want to benefit their staff than so be it

I'm not getting this "your getting your parking cheap so should not seek to get a concession - even if the government recommends you should get a concession" approach

I thought this website was all about saving as much money as possible

would you like to see amazon staff charged to park at work though? Would you be able to exoress an opinion, do you have a view?

I would prefer them not to have to pay to park at their place of work

but it doesn't, it refers to NHS staff, ie technically government employees (paid by taxpayer)

I don't care, I don't work for amazon, but I think its clear they should be able to do what they want, and whats it got to do with this thread what amazon do?

You are free to ask for a concession on the already very reasonable rate. You are free to ask to wear a pink tutu to work if you are so inclined.

They are free to say no.

Does that answer your question?
